Ah, who knows for sure what that character is supposed to be. I bet USAgent is talking to SHIELD and really still works for them. No idea if the new doctor matters. The redhead girl doesn't ring a bell but since he absorbs mutant power maybe Pointer is losing the 'residual power' from being the Collective and needs to steal more?

I'm betting yes. So the redhead is who he uses to get more power, or one of many? That's one way to take care of the problems of CW, have Pointer absorb their energy and de-mutantize them
